Despite how a patient may have lost their teeth, dental implants are a way to give our patients in need their life back\u2014both functionally and aesthetically. It\u2019s time to restore your teeth and start a new chapter in your life. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pazminodentistry.com\/dental-implants.html\">Dental implants in Temple<\/a> can work wonders for regaining your confidence. Pazmino Dentistry can help re-stabilize your smile and improve your quality of life again. The dental process takes commitment to great oral health and improvements in your lifestyle. Let\u2019s look at the process and what kind of patients are suitable candidates.\r\n\r\n<!--more-->\r\n<h2>Getting a Better Understanding of Dental Implants<\/h2>\r\nWhen you think of a dental implant, think of an anchor. They\u2019re created to hold something in place. In dentistry, a dental implant is a surgically implanted anchor into your jaw. That doesn\u2019t sound too inviting to most patients, but when you\u2019re missing a tooth, it\u2019s the best option to permanently restore your smile. A period will pass where your body is adjusting to the implant post and fusing it with your jawbone. After that phase, your dentist in Temple will place your abutment and attach the best dental prosthetic that\u2019s best for you.\r\n<h2>Are you a viable candidate for dental implants?<\/h2>\r\nIf you&#8217;re interested in dental implants, the best thing to do is discuss your oral health and any improvements that need to be made with your dentist. Tt\u2019s important to consider if you\u2019re health and lifestyle will be fitting for this dental procedure. Most people are good candidates for implants, but the perfect candidate should have the following:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Healthy, pink gums<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Enough bone density to anchor the implants in the jaw (if you don\u2019t, there are bone-grafting procedures that may be completed to help you hit this requirement).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Dedication to good oral health and hygiene both at home and by keeping regular dental appointments with your dentist in Temple.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Who isn\u2019t a viable candidate for dental implants?<\/h2>\r\nThen again, there are some people that aren\u2019t the greatest candidates for dental implants. They are typically:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Young because their mouths haven\u2019t stopped growing, shifting, and developing.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Currently\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.workingmother.com\/are-dental-implants-safe-for-pregnant-mothers\" target=\"_blank\">pregnant.<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li>Tobacco users (quitting is the best way to prepare you for dental implants and improve your health).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Alcohol or substance abusers.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>People who have received high-dose radiation treatment of the head or neck.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>People with chronic diseases or systemic problems, including:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Uncontrolled diabetes<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Connective-tissue diseases<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Hemophilia<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Significant immune system deficiencies<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>We Can Help You Prepare for Dental Implants<\/h2>\r\nIn the instance that your oral health isn\u2019t up to a general standard to receive dental implants, we can do our best to help bring you to that level. A major determining factor is the density of your jawbone. Sometimes, because of deteriorating oral health, your jawbone cannot successfully hold these \u201canchors\u201d in place. We\u2019ll even work with you to plan a bone grafting procedure to restore the health of your jawbone.\r\n\r\nAre you ready for dental implants? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pazminodentistry.com\/contact-us.html\">Contact our office<\/a> today to schedule an implant consultation!","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve lost teeth, you know that many aspects of your life are affected.
